Just look under your car and look which boot is ripped. Easiest way.

may sound dumb but roll down both windows... In an empty parking lot turn left and right while leaning your head so your head is centered in the car. Whichever side you hear it more should be your side. Or if you have a moon roof do the same thing with a passenger sticking his out of it.

it's a damn simple question.

if you load the left side of the suspension(read: turning right corner with steering wheel turning at left w/ speed) and the Axle click, it's the left side.

visc versa


you can tell some of response contain no useful info at all
